It's Monday! What Are You Reading?

I finished The Mountain and The Wall last week and I'll have a review up tomorrow. It was okay.

This week I'm reading A Man's Head by Georges Simenon, for a class I'm taking on crime fiction. I have to finish by Wednesday but it's short so it won't be a problem. I'm enjoying it. I've read Simenon before but not any Inspector Maigret novels, so this is fun. He's an interesting detective- cranky and stuff. I want to read more.

On my nightstand I'm within days of finishing Cities of Salt; I should finish it this week no problem. It reads like a series of stories. I'm liking it more as I go along.

At the gym I'm still enjoying A Man of Good Hope very much. It's making me want to read more nonfiction and I think when I do finish Cities of Salt I'm going to replace it with some nonfiction, maybe Going Clear. We'll see.

I need to make a trip to the used bookstore this week to drop off some things I'm done with. If I have ten titles in my pile I get to buy something new!
